My good hour of trying to get that pass side spring from hell back into place , driver side took 5 mins !

how you say? well for anybody that takes that spring out , this is how you get it back in without taking forever !

Tools needed = Vise Grip

On the side of the spring that goes into the hole of the E-brake bracket put your Vise grip on that part , now put the otherside of the spring around the bolt that holds the E-brake bracket on , now push as hard as you can to get that spring in the hole , If you push really hard ,you can get it in the hole , its not that easy but it will only take you under 10 mins !

I hope this helps !
